Frederick Linsell House

Frederick Linsell House is a two-story Georgian style building on the campus of Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, United States. The house was one of the first residences that Wayne converted to educational use, and is now the Dean's Office for the university's College of Fine Performing and Communication Arts. History Originally located on the corner of 2nd and Putnam, the two-story Georgian style home was constructed in 1904 for Frederick Linsell (1847-1938), secretary treasurer of the William Wright Company furniture decorating firm, and his wife Rosa. The architect, John C. Stahl (1874–1951), crafted the house to Linsell's specifications by incorporating fine woods and Georgian-style windows in his design, which was built at the cost of $9,000. The Linsells lived there for 10 years before selling it. After serving as a home for two more families, the building was bought by the Detroit Board of Education in the 1930s. In 1939 the building became the Women's Study Building for the university. It was the only building of 16 on its block that survived the expansion of Wayne State's campus in the mid-1900s. In 1956 the Board of Education donated the Linsell House to the university; it became the office for the School of Business, and later the Biology Department. In 1987 the house was restored and turned into the Dean's Office for the College of Fine Performing and Communication Arts. The 13-room house is now located at 5104 Gullen Mall, in the middle of the Wayne State campus. Exterior features The Linsell House is an example of 20th century colonial architecture. The two-story brick structure is in Georgian style with a palladian window positioned over its front portico. The windows are framed in stone, and it has two chimneys asymmetrically placed on its Georgian hip roof. Interior features The Linsell House has 13 rooms with paneling and oak woodwork from its original construction. It retains its original expansive staircase in good condition. Although the house was restored, its features did not change. References Crumpler, Willie D.

Anchor stores are Dick's Sporting Goods, Family Farm & Home, JCPenney, Lange's Comics, and Soar N Bounce with one vacant anchor store last occupied by Sears. History The Lakes Mall was developed by CBL & Associates Properties of Chattanooga, Tennessee, on a site south of town, near the junction of Interstate 96 and U.S. Highway 31, at the southeastern corner of Sternberg Road and Harvey Street. Construction began on the property in late 1999. On August 15, 2001, the mall's grand opening was announced, although Sears had been operational since March of that year. The mall, upon opening, featured Bed Bath & Beyond, JCPenney, Sears and Younkers among its anchor stores. JCPenney had relocated from a standalone store, while Sears had relocated from the former Muskegon Mall downtown. Dick's Sporting Goods was added in late 2004. On April 18, 2018, it was announced that Younkers would be closing as parent company The Bon-Ton is going out of business. The store closed in August 2018. On December 28, 2018, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 80 stores nationwide. The store closed on March 14, 2019. Bed Bath & Beyond closed in 2023.

On December 6, 2025, Soar N Bounce opened in the remaining 2/3 of the former Younkers. Impact on the community Prior to the development of the mall, the only major business that operated at the intersection of Sternberg Road and Harvey Street was a strip mall known as the Lakeshore Marketplace. This center, a former outlet mall, was eventually redeveloped into big box space (including Toys "R" Us (which later became Sierra), Barnes & Noble, Old Navy, TJ Maxx, and Target. Several restaurants soon opened along The Lakes Mall's periphery. Muskegon Mall, an older mall created by enclosing several blocks of Muskegon's downtown, had operated in downtown Muskegon since 1976. However, it was not considered a major retail draw for the Muskegon area, because it lacked the major chain stores present at the malls in Grand Rapids. Since its opening in 2001, The Lakes Mall has been cited as the most popular retail destination in the Muskegon area. References External links Official website

The Park Shelton

The Park Shelton is a historic condominium building located at 15 East Kirby Street (on the corner of Kirby and Woodward Avenue) in Midtown Detroit, Michigan. Built in 1926 as The Wardell hotel, the building was therefore listed under this name in the National Register of Historic Places in 2007. History The Wardell was designed by Detroit architects Weston and Ellington and built by Bryant and Detwiler in 1926 as a residential hotel, intended for extended stays. Architectural sculpture for the building was created by Corrado Parducci. The name comes from Fred Wardell, who owned the Eureka Vacuum Cleaner Company. Diego Rivera and his wife (and fellow artist), Frida Kahlo, lived there while working on his mural at the Detroit Institute of Arts. The Wardell was sold to Sheraton Hotels in October 1941, and renamed The Wardell Sheraton Hotel in 1943, then the Sheraton Hotel, and finally the Park Sheraton Hotel in December 1951. In September 1952, it was sold to New Yorker Louis Schleiffer. As he could no longer use the Sheraton name, he changed the spelling just slightly, renaming it the Park Shelton Hotel. It was the Detroit hotel of choice for such celebrities as Bob Hope, George Burns, Gracie Allen, and Raymond Burr. In the 1970s, the Park Shelton Hotel was converted to apartments. In 2004, the Park Shelton was redeveloped into condominiums, creating 227 luxury units in the building. The newly refurbished building was opened in August 2004.

The Tridge (Midland, Michigan)

The Tridge is the formal name of a three-way wooden footbridge spanning the confluence of the Chippewa and Tittabawassee Rivers in Chippewassee Park near downtown Midland, Michigan, in the Tri-Cities region. Named as a portmanteau of "tri" and "bridge", the structure opened on October 4, 1981. It consists of one 31-foot (9.4 m) tall central pillar supporting three spokes. Each spoke is 180 feet (55 m) long by 8 feet (2.4 m) wide. History Construction on the bridge began on May 14, 1981, at the instigation of the Midland Area Community Foundation (MACF). The bridge cost US$732,000 (equivalent to $2,592,277 in 2025) to build, and took 6,400 hours of labor. Ten railroad car loads of prefabricated wood, and 337 cubic yards (258 m3) of concrete were used to construct three arches, which weigh 44,000 pounds (20,000 kg) apiece. Each appendage is 180 by 8 feet (54.9 by 2.4 m). The Tridge was designed by Commonwealth Associates of Jackson and built for a design load of 85 pounds per square foot of deck area and to handle 1,500 people at a time. Gerace Construction Company worked on the project. As a symbol, the bridge has been popularized and is the subject, for example, of lithographs. The Tridge was closed in November 2011 due to work on the rails-to-trails project and the construction of a new canoe launch site. In April 2017, the Tridge was closed for renovations with all stain to be removed and restained and some board replacements. The bridge's full reopening would happen in October with a partial reopening on the Fourth of July. The Rollin M. Gerstacker Foundation donated US$2,500,000 (equivalent to $3,283,668 in 2025) towards the project. Recreation The Tridge is a tourist attraction. It and its two surrounding parks—35 acres (14 ha) in Chippewassee and St. Charles parks—are one of the most popular leisure areas downtown. The 3.5-mile (5.6 km) Chippewa Nature Trail begins at the bridge. The site also marks the starting point of the Pere Marquette Rail Trail, a Michigan Rails to Trails Conservancy Hall of Fame trail. Although being mainly a footbridge, bicycles, skateboards, and in-line skates are also allowed on the bridge. It is the focal point for summer evening concerts. Fishing is generally not permitted from the bridge although it does occur frequently. The Tridge, located beside the Midland farmers market, has become an icon of the city and is the most famous landmark of the downtown area. Each year, the Tridge mimics the Mackinac Bridge to the north, in hosting a "Labor Day walk". The festive annual event is sponsored by MACF and the Chippewa Nature Center, and led by the mayor of Midland. In addition, St. Charles Park, which surrounds the Tridge, is host to many public and private events. At night, the bridge's arches are lit. During summer evenings, the Tridge is a popular hangout spot for local teens largely because it is near the Downtown area and several popular areas. The Trilogy Skate Park is located just 300 feet (91 m) north of the Tridge in Chippewassee Park. References External links Tridge photographs
